■ Don't Lets Go to the Dogs Tonight: An African Childhood

Alexandra Fuller was two in 1971, the year her parents abandoned their life in England and returned to what was then Rhodesia, and to the beginning of a bloody civil war. While her father was away for long stretches, fighting for Ian Smith's government, her mother worked the family farm with a passionate determination fuelled by a ferocious love for Africa.

 

This is the story of one family's quixotic battle against the ravages of nature and the pain of bereavement, and of their unbreakable bond with the continent which defined, shaped, scarred and healed them.
